15.4.1 Theft
Theft from other adventurers is technically permissible within Midkemia
in the confines of skills and abilities that permit it. However, there
are some restrictions on theft:
o Scamming other players is not permitted. (See HELP SCAMMING)
o Abusing bugs or loopholes in the game code that allow unintended
theft is forbidden. This falls under bug abuse, and is taken very
seriously when used to harm or disenfranchise another player. If
you are unsure whether something is a bug or loophole, you can always
ISSUE to ask an Administrator. (See HELP ISSUES)
o There is a mechanical restriction on how often a player can be
robbed, and some forms of robbery cannot be performed at all,
especially as it relates to magical abilities that compel a player
to perform actions against his or her will.
Also remember that players will not take kindly to being stolen from, and
this can obviously result in major impacts for your character.
